Render A Pocky™ Stick

Welcome to this yummy tutorial! Using a few BLENDING OPTIONS, you can create these realistic Pocky™ Sticks in just a few moments! Follow the instructions carefully, using both the written text and visual screenshots!

I will be using a black background to better show the steps. You can simply create a new file with a transparent background to begin this.

Using the ROUNDED RECTANGLE TOOL and the hex color #E3CA68, create a stick of your desired length.

Now choose the color/flavor of your choice and brush over the coated portion of the Pocky™ Stick. I chose Pink because my favorite flavor is strawberry. ^^ By selecting a layer while holding CTRL you are assuring the only parts painted are within the perimeters of the chosen layer- in this case, the Stick Shape. You are actually coloring a totally different layer however, not damaging the biscuit/tan portion. ^^
